Let's say that RPI wasn't in the picture, and the HE schism still happened. Why wouldn't UVM be considered? Perhaps in the 90's, when we were offered a second chance to go? Would Union have moved up their program to D-I? Perhaps if CCT/SLU went to HE, and then UVM went, Colgate may have been playing in a CHA that still existed.

At the time, UVM regarded themselves as more similar to the Ivies than the other NE state schools. Colgate has always felt itself as an Ivy at least on the undergrad level.

Personally, I think that if it weren't for RPI, Union would never have gone D-I.

Well, I suppose you learn something every day. http://www.withoutapeer.com/2012/12/...conundrum.html

I think we could almost guarantee that one of the future ones would be "What if RPI joined Hockey East"... any speculation on what the other ones will be?

I think that I could guess most of them.


Edit: It is an interesting take on the situation in the mid-1960s, namely that RPI was lucky that Bjorkman didn't stay.

I have a feeling that you personally witnessed at least one of them.

It's going to be a tough game against Bye this evening.

I suspect exactly one, and probably it's the next one.

Any guess who might be in goal?

I hear that all of Bye's defensemen are terrible skaters, they're all as mobile as pylons.

You can't spell Bryce without Bye.

Didn't they recently construct additional pylons?

I heard that for their goalie, they just stuck a reaver in front of the net.

No, they use a dark templar. You think it's a wide open goal, but the puck never goes in.

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS.a
